Lakes d. Libertyville: Missing 18 serves certainly didn't help Libertyville's cause in a 25-21, 23-25, 23-25 loss to Lakes in boys volleyball Monday.

"I chalk this up to inexperience and inconsistency," Libertyville coach Jenny Smith said. "A great learning opportunity for us, and a chance for us to hit the practice gym hard before playing another conference team on Wednesday."

Mark Demaree also had 4 blocks for Libertyville, which drops to 17-8.
